Frequently asked questions
Can I progress an order to 'Shipped' natively inside Cursor?
Yes! Provide the order token context to the AI (or ask it to fetch recent orders) and instruct: 'Mark order SNIP-1234 as Shipped'. The agent will call the update_order_status endpoint, and your Snipcart dashboard will instantly sync up the new status.
Can the AI distinguish my test vs live orders?
The distinction entirely relies on which Secret API Key you supply. Snipcart has dedicated keys for 'Live' mode and 'Test' mode. Whichever key is saved in your credential injection config governs the space the AI operates within.
How do I check a customer's total spending history using LLMs?
Tell your AI to 'Look up the customer John Doe in Snipcart and fetch their details'. The agent first polls list_customers for the user directory ID, and then passes the match to get_customer_details to return their detailed transaction history completely synthesized for you.
How does the Vercel AI SDK connect to MCP servers?
Import createMCPClient from @ai-sdk/mcp and pass the server URL. The SDK discovers all tools and provides typed TypeScript interfaces for each one.
Can I use MCP tools in Edge Functions?
Yes. The AI SDK is fully edge-compatible. MCP connections work on Vercel Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and similar runtimes.
Does it support streaming tool results?
Yes. The SDK provides streaming primitives like useChat and streamText that handle tool calls and display results progressively in the UI.
